noizy 0 Posted February 1, 2002 It's so beautiful. Futuristic look. I live in Montreal, and we have very few skyscrappers. Link to comment

peter_smith14 0 Posted September 17, 2002 I am really perplexed by some of the low ratings of your work. I am no expert, but your work definietly deserves much more credit than people seem to be giving it. Maybe I just haven't been paying attention, but I definitely haven't seen many such shots of NYC, especially with this angle and exposure. It's extraordinary. It actually reminds me of some of the flyover (computer-animated) shots of Paris in Moulin Rouge. I was curious as to some of the grain I was seeing in the Times Square shots. It looked as if you had perhaps pushed the film a bit...It would be great if you could include more detailed technical information (exposure and development) for these shots if you have it on hand. As an amateur, I learn a lot through the technical data that other photographers post. Link to comment
cts 0 Posted September 18, 2002 Hello, Peter. Thank you, I appreciate your compliments.The ratings could seem low because these pictures were posted when the rating system freely allowed notes from 1 to 10. So the "average" notation was around 5-6. Now the average is higher. Maybe people are very used to see too much pictures of NYC. I think the major audience in photo.net comes from US, which could explain why some of my Paris pictures have more success than my best NY shots. People are submerged by NY and WTC pictures ... they probably react like me when I see pictures of the Eiffel Tower ! ;-) About Times Square, the film is just a Reala exposed and developped normally at 100 ISO. But when I work by night, I often largely overexpose the negative. The "grain" effect is probably dued to the sharpening method I used by software (with The Gimp), as much as the fact I use a filmscanner, wich shows much more detail of the film than a simple flatbed scanner.Also, I work a lot numerically the contrast of my pictures. This could be a further reason why the grain appears like that. Link to comment
